(A/N: I just wanted to give everyone a heads up I know this didn't really happen this season! It is all made up for the storyline!)

Paisleigh
While at the game you can feel the atmosphere is amazing. All the fans are excited and cheering for the team. The Bengals were playing the Cowboys (A/N: Was so tempted to say cowgirls) and it's been a close game the whole time. Right now The Bengals have the ball and are at the 30 yard line, so in field goal range but still need a bit to get to the end zone. The center snapped the ball and you can see Joe is looking for someone to be open eventually he throws it but the way he is tackled doesn't look right. The once lively atmosphere goes dead and you can hear the screams coming from Joe clearly showing he's in pain.

I can feel my heart breaking "Oh my god" I say tearing up "What do I do?" I ask Amelia and she just shrugs. Joe is eventually taken off the field and I jump up with Amelia and we run to get to him. I show the security my badge and run to where Joe is. Once I get to the room and am about to through the door, that's open mind you, a security guard stops me "No fans allowed" he says and I look at him "I'm not I'm..." I start to say then the guard cuts me off "I don't care who you are, you are not getting through" He says making me angry when we hear "Let her in, she's my girlfriend" Joe says making me smile as the guard lets us in. I walk up and right to his side "How ya feeling?" I ask and can see the pain on his face "I'm fine, I'm hoping I didn't retear my ACL" he says and I just hold his hand feeling horrible that he's going through this.

The athletic trainer comes in "So the good news is we don't think it's your ACL, but we want you to go home, and rest up" I see Joe nod "And what's the bad news?" he asks and I can tell by the trainers face it's not something Joe will like "You can't play in next weeks game" they say and Joe instantly shakes his head no "No! Nope! I am playing next week" he says getting up and I look at him "Joe it's not good for you to play after getting hurt" I say and Joe looks at me "No you don't even know what you're talking about" he says taking me by surprise "You're just a dancer you don't know what this is like" he says making my jaw drop "Ya know what you can go home with your mom" I say walking out "No Pais wait, I..." he starts to say but I already left and walked with Amelia seeing his mom walking up and she can see how hurt I am "What happened?" and I just shake my head "Tell Joe I'll be at his house, will you drop him off for me?" I ask and she nods walking into the room.

-When she drops him off-

I can hear Joe and his mom walking in so I walk over to them from the kitchen and help her get him to the couch "Alright if you guys need anything let me know" she says and I nod walking her out then close and lock the door. Once it's locked I walk into the kitchen grabbing him an ice pack and head back over to him placing it on his knee and elevating it for him, while doing all of this I feel him staring at me "Why are you staring at me like that?" I ask eventually looking at him "I don't like when you are mad at me" he says and I sigh and sit up crossing my arms "I'm not mad Joe, I am just hurt with what you said" I say. He looks down and says "Well it's the truth you don't know what this is like" I scoff making him look back up at me "I don't? I have injured myself plenty of times dancing Joe, some that almost cost me my entire career so want to say I don't understand again?" I say now getting angry "Well I bet you have but still" he says and I just laugh "wow" I finish with his ice pack "I'm going upstairs call me if you need me" I say and walk up to his room tearing up and laying on his bed. 

Even though I have not experienced an injury in football does not mean I have not experienced something similar to this. Throughout the night he doesn't call me so I just fall asleep. When I feel the bed beside me dip it wakes me up seeing it's just Joe "Why are you up walking? You should be resting" I say closing my eyes "I can't sleep when I'm not next to you" he says laying down and I sigh "Fine hold on" I go and get his ice pack doing the same thing I did downstairs. I then get out of my clothes and into one of his tshirts and turn to his bed to see him watching and smiling "What?" I ask raising an eyebrow "You look cute in my clothes" he says smiling. I just roll my eyes and get into bed "Goodnight" I say before falling back to sleep.

-Next day- 

I woke up and turn to Joe seeing him still sleeping. I am honestly not as upset with him as I was before. So I decide to get up kissing his cheek and go to the kitchen to make us some breakfast. Of course, as always, I make us pancakes and coffee. In the middle of making pancakes I hear Joe walk down the stairs and walk over to me "Good morning" he says wrapping his arms around me kissing my head "Good morning how's your knee?" I ask turning to look up at him "Much better" he says and I just smile and lean up kissing his lips "I made you coffee and breakfast should be done soon" I say as he pulls away to finish making our coffees "Pais, I'm sorry you know I didn't mean that right?" he says turning to me and the look on his face is honestly so precious I of course can't stay mad at him "I know, I forgive you" I say and he smiles so big "Now lets eat" I say finishing up cooking.
